Malária experimental: contaminação de cepas e animais de biotério por eperythrozoon coccoides

Abstract: RESUMONeste artigo descrevemos a contaminação acidental de uma cepa de malária de roedor (Plasmodium berghei) por um hemoparasita (Eperythrozoon coccoides), levando a alterações importantes no comportamento da malária experimental. A demonstração do parasita foi feita por microscopia óptica e eletrônica e a fonte de contaminação foi detectada em roedores normalmente utilizados na manutenção da cepa, obtidos do mesmo biotério. As medidas disponíveis para o controle deste tipo de infecção são discutidas propondo… Show more

“…In relation to the hemotropic Mycoplasma species, these are epicellular bacteria that are able to attach to the surface of mammal's erythrocytes and may cause infectious anemia [15]. In laboratory rodents, Mycoplasma coccoides (formerly Eperythrozoon coccoides) and Mycoplasma haemomuris (formerly Haemobartonella muris) were described as a type of important confounding variable [16,17] in studies on Plasmodium chabaudi [18], Trypanosoma brucei [19], Plasmodium berghei [20,21], viral infections [22], and cancer studies [23]. Additionally, the suitability of sheep and beagle dogs for research on biomedical purposes has also raised concerns due to subclinical and acute hemoplasma infections, especially on splenectomised animals [24,25].…”
